For many years in the Index of prohibited books, although its publication has caused scandal and censorship around the world, "The Second Sex" (1949) of the french writer Simone de Beauvoir (born in 1908!), has become a literary classic, feminist and beyond.Apart from the most important and serious aspects (outside this context of leisure and fun) I want to propose you some extracts, as an opportunity to reflectand smile.

In general, the fact that many taboos have been abandoned, even in the way of dressing and appearing, and women can live a more open and relaxed sexuality are undoubtedlysome of the positive aspects of the so-called "sexual revolution".The important thing is that these attitudes are spontaneous and conscious and not result, for example, from the need to feel loved, or worse, from the will to reach a goal or make their voice heard.Or there a risk that the evolution-revolution devolves sadly in decline. I think being beautiful and sexy is a right and, in part, a duty for every woman. Whatever makes her feel that way..."killer heels" or squeezing corsets, unusual piercings or practices at the edge of the torture, expensive beauty treatments or just a touch of mascara. As long as they are freely decided, they're ok to me.

A peaceful or crazy week-end, as you prefer...

"... attire has a double function: it is intended to indicate the social standing of the woman... but at the same time it puts feminine narcissism in concrete form"
